The addition of Cotee River Elementary teacher Anthony Terranova brings the tally to 15 candidates for four seats. Terranova has filed papers indicating he will run for the District 3 post that Cathi Martin is leaving.

He would face real estate broker Cynthia Armstrong, developer Mike Ryan and lawyer Sallie Skipper in the August primary if he qualifies for the ballot. Qualifying occurs in June, and candidates are collecting petition signatures now.
